What? Bush forgot to put Afghanistan in the budget again?
Gee, Bush doesn't seem to be really good at organizing democratic elections, does he?
Three nations have agreed to pay more than $22 million to help the effort to organize elections in Afghanistan scheduled for June, a U.N. official said Saturday.
U.N. spokesman Manoel de Almeida e Silva said the offer was made at a meeting of diplomats in Kabul this week to discuss preparations for the elections. He would not identify the countries.
